I Ain't Here to Behave

V6

[Intro] Somebody told me to settle down. I told them to turn it up. [Verse 1] I got grease on my fingers, got dust on my jeans Got a head full of ideas that are too loud for your dreams Got a laugh that carries and a stare that sticks And I never learned to dance to somebody else's tricks I have worked all week with my back bent low Now the weekend is calling and I am ready to go Got the whole crew rolling, got the night wide open Got a few good friends and a whole lot of motion I don't need a velvet rope, I don't need a pass Give me room to move and a little bit of brass I have got no interest in a room full of rules I came to make a memory, not sit here looking cool [Pre Chorus] Hit that snare Light that fuse I came to make some noise I got nothing left to prove [Chorus] I ain't here to behave I came here to raise some hell Got a foot on the floor And a story I can tell Let the bass line hit Let the whole room roar If you came for a little We came for more I ain't here to behave I ain't here to play nice I got a wild side living And it just rolled the dice Turn it up till the windows shake Let the whole damn building vibrate I ain't here to behave I came here to celebrate [Verse 2] Got a couple of old friends with some stories to spin Every time we say goodbye, somebody pulls us back in There is laughter in the corner, there is thunder in the floor There is somebody yelling that they want one song more I have had enough of sitting with my hands in my lap Enough of watching life through somebody else's map I have earned this night and I am spending it right With a little more volume and a whole lot of life Let the rhythm hit hard, let the guitar strings scream Let the low end roll like a runaway machine We are not getting younger, so we better get moving There is nothing like a good night with the whole crew grooving No fake little flex, no expensive disguise Just a room full of people with the fire in their eyes When the morning comes knocking, we will deal with it then Tonight belongs to us, so crank it up again [Pre Chorus] Hit that snare Light that fuse I came to make some noise I got nothing left to prove [Chorus] I ain't here to behave I came here to raise some hell Got a foot on the floor And a story I can tell Let the bass line hit Let the whole room roar If you came for a little We came for more I ain't here to behave I ain't here to play nice I got a wild side living And it just rolled the dice Turn it up till the windows shake Let the whole damn building vibrate I ain't here to behave I came here to celebrate [Bridge] Kill the lights Keep the beat Let that low end shake the street Hands up high Boots down hard Tonight we are the backyard stars [Instrumental Guitar Solo] [Breakdown] Are you still standing? Are you still alive? If you got some fire left Let me hear you tonight [Final Chorus] I ain't here to behave I came here to raise some hell Got a foot on the floor And a story I can tell Let the bass line hit Let the whole room roar If you came for a little We came for more I ain't here to behave I ain't here to play nice I got a wild side living And it just rolled the dice Turn it up till the windows shake Let the whole damn building vibrate I ain't here to behave I came here to celebrate [Outro] Settle down? Hell no. Turn that thing up again.
